Poison doctor Niangzi Shanlihan

Chapter 137 Bidding

"Last time, I said that we are going to sell this fish. In the town, small fish cost five cents a catty, while big fish cost eight to ten cents."

"In the morning, I told my husband and son-in-law that it's too far to go to the town, so it's better to exchange a few catties of grain in the village. After all, my family doesn't have grain in stock, so we can only rely on buying."

A catty of ground wheat flour costs ten yuan in the village, and ten to twelve yuan in the town to the grain store, and the grain store sells it for more than fifteen yuan, and it can be sold for twenty text.

Of course, this is the price for a day when the weather is good. If there is a famine, or if someone hoards food for other reasons, the price will be raised.

But that's not what's in front of us.

Right now, this old lady even traded six eggs for two fish, thinking her eggs are more expensive?
Therefore, Lin Xiaofu had to spend some effort to set the price, otherwise people would think that their fish was caught in the river and they didn't need money.

"This..." Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, "Look, Mrs. has brought the eggs, so you can change them again."

"Hehe, ma'am, you reminded me. It just so happened that my family ran out of food. I'll go door to door and ask who wants to exchange food for fish."

"I'll sell the big fish for the price of the small fish, and I don't want money, so I'll exchange it with wheat noodles."

"Ma'am, don't blame me for not wanting eggs. I bought eggs because my mother was sick and the family didn't have anything to nourish her body. Now that my mother's illness has been cured, the family is short of rations. Why don't you bring wheat noodles? "

"Okay, I'll go back and ask Uncle Zhou, he agreed to exchange wheat noodles, and I'll come over again." Aunt Zhou turned around with an ugly face and left.

"Auntie, one catty of wheat noodles can be exchanged for two catties of fish, and two catties of fish is enough for the family to eat." Lin Xiaofu hurriedly shouted, reminding Aunt Zhou that big fish also have a price.

Although there are many small fish today, there are also quite a few big fish. The smallest ones are as long as chopsticks, and some are big enough to weigh one or two catties.

If Mrs. Zhou were to do the exchange, six eggs for three Wen would cost two to four catties of fish.

"Fu'er, why don't you just give Mrs. Zhou another one?"

Lin Yushi didn't speak just now, and was also surprised to see the big girl talking like this.

Everyone came with eggs, but people came back empty-handed?

"Mother, last time I exchanged for two. Although the fish is smaller, if you don't have enough people, even if you exchange this bucket, they will definitely not be too many."

Lin Xiaofu opened his mouth seriously, and glanced at his mother, no wonder he is always bullied, this kind heart is too good.

Aunt Zhou, she had no interest in making friends, and it was cruel to go to a sick and weak family to take advantage.

"Chun'er, you continue to dry the fish. I'll go to the neighborhood and ask. If anyone is willing to exchange noodles, it's a good deal if we sell them all. If not, it doesn't matter if we eat at home."

Lin Xiaofu's mind turned, and he immediately walked out.

Instead of selling it in the town, which would take manpower and time, and earn the eyes of the wicked mother-in-law for money, it is better to exchange it for food directly, and you can have multiple reasons when arguing.

After all, her family really has no food to eat, so she can't spend money to buy it all the time, when people ask where did she get the money?

She can't explain it well.

Bartering can solve urgent needs, and it is Zhao Zicheng's advantage. Tomorrow, he will sell them door to door in the village.

The price of five cents is really not expensive for a hunter.

As long as the Orion goes up the mountain and doesn't return empty-handed, at least he will earn more than one hang, this is what Zhao Zicheng himself said.
